You used to run across references to voice control of gadgets as a common literary device in sci-fi novels and movies to indicate they were set in the future.

Once setup is complete, TV watchers can then control their TV via voice commands, such as "Alexa, change channel to ESPN", or "Alexa, search for Game of Thrones".

In a related development, DISH customers with a Hopper can now watch all of their live and recorded content, plus thousands of on-demand titles, from any TV connected to a Fire TV or Fire TV Stick.

"While DISH Anywhere has historically been embraced on mobile devices, users are now getting even more of what they want - their DISH subscription on any TV at no extra cost", said Niraj Desai, DISH vice president of product management.

The new app also includes support for Style Check, a new service from Amazon that uses a combination of machine learning and advice from human fashion specialists to help you figure out what to wear.

If you have all of those things, just sign into your Alexa account, enable the DISH skill, and follow the on-screen directions. For more information about the integration, head here.
